   Re "Change the file owned by Greg to Apache license" this should only be done if the IP provenance of every line of code is 100% known and the file include no code from outside of NuttX.
   
   Re "NuttX can graduate to the apache top level project by just changing Greg's copyright." the answer would be no, as the code base must undergo an IP review and get IP clearance. The process of looking at each file and changing the headers is part of this. Additional software grants may also help this, and reviews of releases will help this. The ASF need confidences that anyone can use this code under the Apache license and that there are no unexpected dangers.
